Adoption

Satellite Adoptions

Satellite and Mobile Adoptions

Did you know that less than 18% of family pets are adopted from animal shelters? Here at the AWS we understand that some people wouldn't think to stop by the shelter when it's just as easy to purchase an animal from a breeder, pet store or from the newspaper. In an effort to bring our animals to the forefront, we now have Satellite and Mobile Adoption Programs that bring the AWS animals out into the community.

Satellite Adoptions: Many local pet supply stores across York and Cumberland Counties participate in our program by hosting an adoptable cat or rabbit (or both)! These animals can be viewed at the pet store, and are cared for by the store staff. The adoption process is similar to at-the-shelter adoptions and potential adopters are required to come to the shelter to go over the adoption contract and paperwork with a trained Adoption Counselor. The following facilities participate in our Satellite Program. Visit them frequently to see the wonderful, available AWS animals.

PetSmart at Biddeford Crossing hosts a satellite cat adoption center! Adoption counselors are in the store on Thursdays: 5-7pm, Fridays: 9am-Noon, Saturdays: 12-5pm, and Sundays: 12-5pm. Download an application and bring it with you or fill one out at PetSmart.
